:The journal ''Occupational Health Science'' (''OHES'') should not be deleted. This peer-reviewed journal has been in existence for five years. Recently administrators at the American Psychological Association's PsycInfo indexing group decided to include in this preeminent psychology index articles the journal publishes. ''OHES'' has become an important outlet for papers associated with the field of ] (OHP). The other main OHP outlets are ''Work & Stress'' and the ''Journal of Occupational Health Psychology''. ''OHES'' covers work-related physical and mental health, particularly in relation to psychosocial working conditions. ''OHES'' also covers job stress, workplace safety, and accidents. From the editor-in-chief through to the associate edtors and the editorial board, the figures who shape the journal are researchers with expertise in working conditions, job stress, safety, burnout, work-related, financial strain, etc.

:Here some examples of articles that were recently accepted for publication: Musculoskeletal Health and Perceived Work Ability in a Manufacturing Workforce; Effects of Social and Occupational Stress, and Physical Strain on Suicidal Ideation Among Law Enforcement Officers; Job Insecurity during an Economic Crisis: the Psychological Consequences of Widespread Corporate Cost-Cutting Announcements. Respected researchers are the authors. The journal has become too notable to be threatened with deletion. ] (]) 16:31, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

== Definitions ==

Hello, Iss246,

I've been thinking about you recently, since I ran across a mass-media article talking about burnout. The definition given was (from memory) "a mismatch in expectations" about your work. That is, your employer says it will trade you (e.g.,) a dependable paycheck, a desk in an air-conditioned office building, and a supply of colleagues who are somewhat less likely to be axe murders than average (but perhaps more likely than usual to complain about the state of the air conditioning), in return for you engaging in certain activities, coping with a certain amount of bureaucracy, and generally trying to keep your employer from going bankrupt. You, on the other hand, believe that your job will provide you with a satisfying social life, give meaning and purpose to your life, result in admiration for whichever qualities you value the most, give you opportunities for additional prestige, promotions, and pay raises, and generally result in you getting paid for doing what you love.

What appeals to me about this is that it has the potential for differentiating between depression and burnout; it might explain culture-based and generation-scale trends in burnout rates (assuming any exist); and it suggests avenues for class-based research (because a working-class person tends to have different, and perhaps more realistic, expectations of intangible workplace benefits than a Wunderkind, and this might even help understand non-workplace effects on workplace satisfaction). It also, very appealingly, suggests fairly simple solutions, namely setting realistic expectations and then getting a life outside of work. What doesn't appeal to me about it is that it feels like someone else just making up yet another definition.

So I am here to ask: Has any progress been made on what, exactly, the One True™ definition of burnout is? Is there any hope of reaching such a definition during the current decade? Or is this one of those Alice in Wonderland situations, in which the meaning of a word is whatever I want it to be, and language is used to conceal our real thoughts? ] (]) 22:14, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

::@WhatamIdoing. Dear WhatamIdoing, thank you for the thoughtful note. Rotenstein et al. (Rotenstein, L. S., Torre, M., Ramos, M. A., Rosales, R. C., Guille, C., Sen, S., & Mata, D. A. (2018). Prevalence of burnout among physicians: A systematic review. JAMA, 320(11), 1131-1150. https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2018.12777) in their review of research on BO in doctors found 142 different definitions of BO, indicating that there is no consensus regarding what BO is. There is also a problem regarding whether BO is identifiable as a diagnosis or should be treated dimensionally (as a continuum like, say, temperature). As for depression, it has long been a diagnosis, but research at the frontiers of the field of psychopathology suggest it is better represented as a dimension, with only people at the high end of the continuum meeting criteria for a diagnosis (e.g., Haslam, N., Holland, E., & Kuppens, P. (2012). Categories versus dimensions in personality and psychopathology: A quantitative review of taxometric research. Psychological Medicine, 42(5), 903-920. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0033291711001966). When BO and depression are both treated dimensionally, interesting results emerge.

::Sure organizational culture and workplace demands have an impact on the worker. There is a growing body of research that the level of adversity in working conditions is related to.elevations in scores on BO scales (and there are several, the MBI, CBI, SMBM, etc.) and scores on depression scales (PHQ-9, CES-D, etc.), which are treat depression dimensionally. There is evidence that the core feature of BO, exhaustion, is highly correlated with scores on depressive symptom scales although those correlations bounce around from sample to sample, which is to be expected.

::You mentioned class-based research. You make an excellent point. Perhaps there is a difference between the average correlations between BO scales and depression scales in blue and white collar jobs. That is a proposition worth exploring. The samples in most BO research have involved nurses, physicians, teachers, etc. It would be good to explore the results of studies involving blue collar workers. ] (]) 12:21, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

::The mismatch idea is interesting. ] theory bears on that. Interest in the theory has waned as theories such at the demand-control-support model {https://en.wikipedia.org/Occupational_health_psychology#Demand-control-support_model} emerged. The DCS model has been more productive in yielding valid results. It would be interesting to learn if members of the working class have more realistic expectations of their jobs. Bear in mind that they may have, on average, more realistic expectations (and I don't know that for a fact), but if the jobs have adverse environments (e.g., little control over the tasks they engage in), the jobs will still have baleful effects on their physical and mental health. ] (]) 12:38, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
:::Are these two models seen as conflicting? I'm thinking that they might fit together nicely: If I've been raised to expect a high level of control on the job and that, in fact, it was perfectly plausible for me to be the US president, and I take a job in retail sales and discover that I have almost no control over anything, then I'm likely to be a poor fit for that environment. If (here I am thinking of a conversation I had decades ago, with a woman who had grown up on a small, poverty-level farm) you were raised with a very clear and explicit expectation that you have to do whatever the boss says, when the boss says to do it, exactly the way the boss says to do it, even if you think your ideas are better, then I would expect you to be a better fit for a low-control environment. ] (]) 16:29, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

::::@WhatamIdoing. The models are mostly conflicting. Low control is toxic whether over the long run low control is expected or not. Having a job with low control is largely toxic. I once had job in manufacturing. I was a tool and die operator. The work was repetitive. I knew that coming in. The work was awful and tiring. Drudgery. That I expected the work to have low control did not make the job any better. The reality of work overpowers the expectations. ] (]) 02:16, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
:::::And yet, there are people who spend their careers in manufacturing and appear to thrive in it. At least, when I worked in a factory, I saw people who seemed happy to come to work and who had been there for decades. I couldn't speak to the long-term experience personally, as I was only there for a few weeks during summer vacation, but I wouldn't have described it as toxic in a psychological sense. (Another part of the factory floor used some glues that might have been toxic in other ways, but as the newbie, I wasn't allowed anywhere near anything complicated or expensive like that.) I spent most of my time clicking ] shut. It was certainly repetitive, and the level of choice I had basically amounted to deciding whether I'd start on the left side of the pile or the right side of the pile, but I wouldn't have described it as awful or drudgery, and it wasn't really any more tiring than you'd expect for any job that involves standing up all day. I probably would have gotten bored eventually, but that's not quite the same thing, and the long-term staff around me seemed to have found other ways to keep their interest up, such as chatting with their neighbors. I was usually facing the inspection table, and I spent several weeks watching two or three older women do their job without ever figuring out how they did it. They would stare at a cart full of identical items piled on top of each other, and then either wheel it away, or suddenly fish out a couple of pieces.
:::::Getting back to our articles, it sounds like nobody knows what burnout really is, and therefore nobody knows what causes it. In fact, all studies about cause are going to be 'wrong', because I'll determine that burnout is caused by the weather, but since I'm using my own definition, then this research doesn't apply to the other 141 definitions – assuming that my research is replicable anyway, and the odds are low on that point in general. On the other hand, it also means that whatever a source writes about burnout is True™, because there probably is one scenario, using one definition, for which the statement is relevant. You'd have to prove a claim wrong for 142 definitions times thousands of situations before being able to say that it is definitely, completely, absolutely false.
:::::It reminds me of the problem of ], which is defined in practice as
:::::# Patient feels bad.
:::::# Patient blames 'chemicals'.
:::::The only difference is that under burnout, the patients are blaming 'work' instead of 'chemicals' for the fact that they feel bad. ] (]) 18:03, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
::::::@WhatamIdoing. That people remain in highly repetitive jobs that provide little control over the tasks they perform does that mean they thrive in those jobs. There are reasons why people remain in such jobs. One is that there are often barriers to changing jobs. Siegrist underlined those barriers in explaining why individuals remain in jobs in which there is an imbalance between the effort they put into their work is incommensurate with the tangible and intangible rewards they get from the job. I add that ] in his book ''The Mental Health of the Industrial Worker'' shows that many many in low-control, repetitive jobs have dreams of doing something different like starting a small farm but don't have the resources to make such a move. ] (]) 18:52, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

In response to the above, the references are in the style of the American Psychological Association. WP allows editors to use the style of the discipline to which the topic is aligned. ''Occupational Health Science'', although trans-disciplinary, is mostly aligned with the discipline of occupational health psychology and is supported by the Society for Occupational Health Psychology. The APA style of the references is, therefore, satisfactory.

In addition, the complaint about the impact factor is off the mark. To find out the impact of any journal, an editor has to go to the publisher's journal site. That is what I did. That would apply to the journal ''Occupational Health Psychology'' or to ''Psychological Review''. I have no reason to believe that Springer would falsify the impact factor. ] (]) 18:35, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

:::In my view @HEADBOMB and @WhatamIdoing, the Misplaced Pages page for the journal ''Occupational Health Science'' should be restored. The impact factor has grown to 3.1. The journal reported 135,000 downloads in 2023. It has a very accomplished editorial board. It is indexed by PsycInfo. Indexing had been a bone of contention before it was indexed by PsycInfo because without such indexing the journal was not sufficiently notable to my critics. But since it has been indexed by the database, my critics have moved on to find other faults with the journal. ] (]) 02:52, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
::::What I'd like, and what we don't have for ~95% of journals, is reliable sources talking about journals in their field. I'm imagining something like a news story/column (e.g., in ]) that says things like "Everyone knows the top journals in our field are... but if you're in this niche, then you really want... and a funny thing happened on the way to founding this one journal..." It's often very difficult for editors to find ] for academic journals. If every field wrote up what "everyone knows", it would definitely help us, and it would probably help newcomers to the field, too.
::::In the meantime, I suggest merging as much of that as possible into ], so that readers can find the information, even if it's not on a separate page. ] (]) 16:04, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
:::::@WhatamIdoing, as infuriating as these editors have done to the journal, I took your advice and enhanced the coverage ''OHS'' on the SOHP page.
